In Twin Cities, arctic wind chills, snow on tap for today

As the metro marks its coldest winter in 35 years, the forecast for the week ahead calls for a slight warmup.

But first, there's a wind chill advisory and a chance for snow later today.

The National Weather Service issued a hazardous weather outlook this morning as wind chill values were expected to dip to 25 to 30 degrees below zero. The outlook expires at 9 a.m., and a high of about 13 degrees is joined by an inch or two of snow beginning this afternoon and continuing in the night, according to the weather service.

Temperatures rise to a high of 20 on Tuesday and 23 on Wednesday, and by Thursday and Friday, the lows will be in the teens with highs just shy of 30 degrees. But the warmer weather also brings a slight chance of more snow.

By Sunday, though, the high could break the freezing point and peak in the mid-30s.
